Sonication-assisted alcoholysis of boron nitride nanotubes for their sidewalls chemical peeling.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Boron nitride (BN)-based nanomaterials attract considerable attention due to their unique properties. In this study, we found that sonication treatment of multiwalled boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in primary alcohols had led to chemical peeling of their sidewalls through alcoholysis, thereby producing boron nitride nanoribbons (BNNRs).

Hydrolytic Unzipping of Boron Nitride Nanotubes in Nitric Acid
Boron nitride nanoribbons (BNNRs) have very attractive electrical and optical properties due to their unique edge states and width-related properties. Herein, for the first time, BNNRs were produced by a simple reflux of boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) in nitric acid containing water, which had led to unzipped sidewalls through hydrolysis. Their high reactivity that originated from edges was ve...
